McCleary's Boots Go Up For Auction

The Reading FC Former Players' Association would like to thank Gareth McCleary who has very kindly donated a spare pair of his boots to raise funds for the Association. The signed boots are up for auction now on e-bay. If you would like to place a bid, and help our fundraising please visit the auction page.

The boots are Adidas 16.1 in size 8 and are in new condition. Both boots are signed by the Reading FC and Jamaica player. The boots come with the original boot bag and a certificate of authenticity signed by the Association's chairman.

All profits from the sale will be used by the Association, which has the following aims:

Reuniting colleagues, former players and managers of Reading Football Club

Providing help to our members, including, but not limited to, social and welfare support

Giving a voice to its members

Continuing to run as a non-profit organisation with any surplus donated to local charities connected to the association or Reading Football Club
